Date you ordered and received the phone vs. "will ship by" date

Ordered 04/28, got 04/29.

does it really matter, though? obviously it's really popular, and thus on backorder. if you order it, you'll get it... eventually.

if you cant wait, go to a store (call and ask first of course)

I'm in Connecticut.

Ordered online 5/4
Received shipment notice 5/6
Received Incredible 5/7

In between ordering and receiving shipment the online status was confirming that the order was accepted and would ship in 2/3 days.

Ordered on mine on 05/02 got it 05/04. Site said "Ship by 05/14" when I ordered it.

I ordered mine on 5/6 around 4:30PM and had it in my hands via fedex delivery at NOON 5/7... I think it shipped from texas. Highly impressed!
Was just reminiscing and couldn't help but comment on these from PAGE 1.... These f*ckers had no idea, lol

My phone shipped today. It was only 4 hours away as of 8am this morning but I won't get it until "before 7pm" on Friday.

Ordered: 6/20 online
Ship by: 7/19
Ship Date: 7/14
ETA: 7/16

Too bad I work all day Friday and my roommate doesn't get out of bed til after noon. Gonna leave a note in hopes they'll leave it if he doesn't answer the door. I'll be mad if I could've been playing with it all weekend and have to wait until they attempt to deliver again on Monday!

yes, the ADR6300VW2 is AMOLED, this is the phone with the free 2gig card and amoled screen.

If the skew # is not that and you ordered it in the last month or so, something has changed in the phone, and it may be the screen.

how do you know it has the amoled screen? did you check the skew?

I checked it against the local store model which has been there by day one of the phone and against the Moto Droid X they have in the store. It is identical to the display unit and noticeable better than the Droid X. I did just check the SKU # and it is the one you list. I ordered 6/14. If it is the new screen they are going to use, you can't tell the difference that's for sure. On the other hand, I didn't really care which screen I got. Each have their advantages which would work for me either way.

Trying not to get my hopes up, but I just called VZW CS for an estimated ship date and was told for orders placed on 7/10 should ship by 7/24. At first he told me three weeks, but when he looked up the notes he told me the 24th. I hope it's true!!!!!!!!


Can you tell me the questions you asked? haha - I called and they said I ordered it on 7/1 and it will ship on 7/29. Curious if they have to dig any deeper to get an updated shipping date.

The guy i talked to today that told me he still had the same ship dates from a few days ago (short name, kip, chip, something like that) told me he was pretty sure the ship dates he was giving out going to change drastically for the better over the next few days and I would get mine before my estimated re-ship date.

I am thinking at this point with a few phones showing up in stores combined with the website ship date changing for the better today and the 6/20-6/22 people getting ship notifications that the guy was right.

sku is all that matters, you got the amoled, congrats, and use it in best of health. Tell us how it is working, etc.

well it looks like either HTC kicked something into gear or everyone is waiting out the X when I reordered i was told 8/2 will by date. then yesterday the site said...will be date 8/10... today its back to 8/2 LOL maybe my 8/2 date moved up several days..if it did I hope they keep it as a surprise to me. like they did on my back ordered ship by date.

looks like I will get it in time to play with both the incred and x for a couple weeks before I have to decide...

CONGRATS! Keep us posted on whether this silly thing was worth the wait
O it is SO worth it, i'm here to tell ya. Had it three weeks now and love it more and more. Dont be put off by battery on first week. You use it so much that it's not an accurate estimate of battery life. phone just died after 26 hours up time and 5 1/2 hours awake. Good enough for me!!!
(and dozens of posts!) :rolleyes:
Dozens??.... think i have 280 posts in this thread, lol

I am sure this has been said somewhere else already, but did anyone else notice that the "Ship By" date is now 8/2? I assume this signals Verizon is getting more in stock, or that more people are cancelling for the Droid X.

three times in the last two pages, LOL.

Those of us waiting for new or replacements phones are hopeful.

I hope everyone goes to the droid x, LOL.

Hello fellow Louisianian.
I'm a 6/19 and I'm PRAYING that it comes today or tomorrow.
Maybe they came on the same shipment from Memphis, lol.


I was born in LA, then moved away to Memphis for 25 years :eek: and am now back in LA. I'll call my friends at FedEx and tell them to make sure yours is on the same shipment coming down.....oh wait....i have no friends at FedEx...they are all at UPS....

My refresh button is almost wore out......if we all hit refresh at the same time will it crash the FedEx tracking site???? let us not try that

Ordered instore: 6/21
Ship by: 7/19
Actually Shipped: 7/14
Expected Delivery: 7/16

Welcome to another Louisiana neighbor. I live on the Bayou as well. I just got mine yesterday and it does have the Amoled screen and it did have an SD card with it.

Hopefully in the few days that has passed they did not run out of sd cards ;)

Guess we could have an Incredible Android Forum Unofficial Convention down here. At least that is what we can call it to write it off on our taxes (for those of us that pay them). It will actually be a keg, carton of cigs, a grill, red meat, crawfish and phones (for those of us that have them).:)

So long as we don't go to the coast to party. :( Only to help clean up or take pictures with our phones to report the progress.

Ordered in store: 06/18
Estimated ship: 07/16
Called CS to see if I would get a shipping notification 07/12. He said yes.
Found attempted deliver door tag: 07/13
Ship date . . . 07/12
Called FedEX last night and asked them to hold for pickup.
Picked up this morning and started charging.

What I didn't realize was that you have to hold the power button down for several seconds to turn the DINC off. When I plugged it in, it powered up right away. When I pressed the power button for a few seconds, then released, the screen blacked out. It wasn't until I got home this evening that I realized I had just had the screen locked. Oh well, power is off now.

Just did the *611 and got the "pending"notification.Talked to a very cool csr who gave me my tracking #.My dinc went out today from Ontario and will be delivered by 3pm tomorrow.:) I had ordered on 6/20 had a ship by date of 7/19,shipped on 7/14 and will be in my hands 7/15.
I am a very happy camper :)
that's a bummer about your CSR...mine was all giddy about the dInc..she has one too. She said that's all any of them are talking about - dincs and x's.

Did you have overnight or 2 day? Mine is also coming from West Chester to Central Virginia. I'm gonna guess they'll make that 4 hour drive take 2 days. Bah! Impatient!

Mine was shipped FedEx 2 Day, but my FedEx center rocks! They got it in at 3:54 this morning, sorted it at 7:43 and put it on the truck for delivery at 8:02.

We missed the driver, he attempted to deliver at 2:31 and my fiance didn't get home until 2:45! But we were able to pick it up at 4:30.

seems like their csr was pretty good to me. I confused ...by the bummer part, when they said the csr gave them a tracking #. Oh well, back to the x fourm..wonder which phone I will get in first... Dinc ordered on 7-6 or X ordered asap ... which will I keep, is the real question I guess... good luck to all/any pending shipments hope yall get'em soon

Order Date: 6/17 @ 4:30pm (Verizon Corporate Site)
Ship Date: 7/12
Delivery Date: 7/13

Still shipping with AMOLED - Compared screen to a phone received a month ago and it's the same. The phone is simply amazing, best mobile device i have ever used and better than iphone 4 IMO.

Very, very light and easy to carry in jean pocket, screen is amazing - battery life is the only negative. Got Sendio battery and breaking it in.

Got it wrapped in Ghost Armor and now I don't have to worry about throwing it around.

New update for Google Maps has the Navigate function - Speak an address and it plots it out for you in 5 secs. Awesome.
